I'm having problems trying to find the elapsed time of a process on a Red Hat box, while on a mandrake box i can do

time -f "%E" find -type f

and after finding the files it would yield

0:06.98


I can't get the same result on the redhat box, this is the output i get

bash: -f: command not found

real 0m0.001s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s

how can i format the output in the redhat box so as to get the same result as on the other box?
There is also the issue of redirecting that output to a file, I can't user the '-o FILE' option either.

help will be greeatly appreciated.

Thanks

use full path to time :
That should work on both distros

Thanks, i just tried and it works like a charm
